Peabee And Jay

A glow of golden beauty glides across the walls of desolate white
Melting as she zooms to the edges of human delight
Carrying along the way, a rich nutty scent
All is peaceful until it collapses with a major dent
“Code red” yells a desperate alarm
A jubilant red glob strides with a handsome charm
He plonks down with Peabee in the cramped living room
And with that, their eyes meet and BOOM
A soft collision of gold and red
In a romantic position to happily wed
Though, covered by a natural white shade
Remember, that everything is man-made
